ACIM Workbook Lesson #44
"God is the Light in which I see."
We have all witnessed people who are deeply unconscious, being totally led by ego and the baser instincts. When I said yesterday that God sees no difference in Mother Teresa and Adolph Hitler, I did not mean to say that heinous acts perpetrated by unconscious individuals should be ignored or accepted as inevitable. When we view others without judgment, this does not mean that their inhumane acts should be overlooked. Defining injustice is not in and of itself judgmental. Seeing in the light of divine Love, which becomes our sight when we clear the channel for it, we are led in ways which strong opinion and bias would hide from view. We can be a transparency for this Love to shine through and illumine the darkness, simply by giving up things we never wanted in the first place.
Mary Baker Eddy quote:
“The manifestation of God through mortals is as light passing through the windowpane. The light and the glass never mingle, but as matter, the glass is less opaque than the walls. The mortal mind through which Truth appears most vividly is that one which has lost much materiality — much error — in order to become a better transparency for Truth. Then, like a cloud melting into thin vapor, it no longer hides the sun.” Science & Health Page 295:16-24
